RK: I cannot bear the thought of John McCain as the Republican candidate for POTUS. Yes, I know he was a war hero – about 40 years ago – and I salute him for that. But having seen him in action in the government for the last few decades, I find him entirely unsuited for the job of Chief Executive in 2008.
He is too old, and represents the status quo in Congress. Do not forget the Keating Five scandal. He has shown on multiple occasions that he is no friend of the US Constitution or it’s Bill of Rights. He lacks executive temperament. He seems more intent on serving his own ego and legacy than in humbly serving the people. He has failed to apply conservative principles of governance in the Senate. He is a current Washington Insider. He is on the wrong side on the issue of illegal immigration.
I count the above as too many negatives for me to support his candidacy.
